    Possible to disable browser-based interface?

    Because I don't like the idea of port 8080 being open to HTTP traffic. Accessing the system from the app is one thing; someone stumbling upon it from the web is another...

    Possible to disable browser-based interface?

    I realize the browser interface and BI iOS app use the same port -- I'm wondering if it's possible to disable the interface that is available in a browser? I don't have any use for the browser version and I'd prefer if it were disabled all together. I only use the iOS app in my set up. Thanks!

    Camera with two way audio

    My friend would like to add some hardware to his existing BlueIris system that would allow him to speak from his phone to a camera (or some sort of PoE device). Basically, if he sees someone doing something bad on his lawn, he wants to be able to yell at them from wherever he is -- over wifi or...

    Zoom control on IPC-HFW4431R-Z

    Thank you! The flip solved the first issue. Clicking + now zooms in, - zooms out. On the app... I'm logging in as a user of type 'admin.' I've verified this user has PTZ/Control checked. EDIT: After logging out and in to the app, I now see the PTZ controls. Thanks again!

    Zoom control on IPC-HFW4431R-Z

    I just received a IPC-HFW4431R-Z. After install, I see the camera on my admin UI and BlueIris mobile app, but the zoom controls are not active in the BlueIris mobile app. Additionally, the zoom in and out controls are backwards on the admin UI. If I click zoom out (-) the camera zooms in...

    Need bullet model recommendations

    I haven't been keeping up with the new Dahua models and need a recommendation for a family member residential install. My old 1.3 MP bullet-style cameras (HFW2100) have treated me well, but I'd like to hear if there's something newer in the $100 range that I should move to for this latest...

    Live monitoring of all cameras

    Indeed. My only concern with using maximize is that if the server restarts, they'll have to go in to the UI and click maximize again. The monitor(s) will be on a different floor than the server. I'll have to think this through. They've added to the original request and want one live monitor...

    Live monitoring of all cameras

    Oh! I guess I thought maximize also showed the UI controls. I also thought having the UI open all the time would affect CPU usage to some degree. True or not? Thanks for the replies.

    Live monitoring of all cameras

    I have a customer that wants to have an LCD in his workshop that shows all the cameras configured in BlueIris. I don't want to have the BlueIris admin open and running all the time just to serve up the video feeds (not to mention the other parts of the UI would get in the way). Is there a...

    Different behavior when accessing BI via iOS app on wifi vs LTE

    Using the same value as WAN for LAN "fixed" the issue. Case closed. :)

    Different behavior when accessing BI via iOS app on wifi vs LTE

    Updated for the sake of clarity... I have a BlueIris instance that is giving me problems -- I cannot see my cameras when I connect to it from my iPhone or iPad while on my office WIFI network. If I disable WIFI on my phone and use LTE to connect, I have no problems. Here is what I see when I...

    I was trying Chrome and Edge. Went back to IE and it worked. Thanks (and my bad for overlooking something basic) !!!

    Dahua PTZ Dome - cannot remove overlay text

    I recently bought a Dahua PTZ dome camera and, while it is functioning fine, I cannot adjust the overlay text via the browser administration interface. When I log in and go to Camera > Video > Overlay, the web page becomes unusable. I cannot toggle any settings, nor can I navigate away from...
